Common questions
When do 2026 SACE results come out?
2026 SACE results are released by the SACE Board on Monday 14 December 2026 from 8:30 am ACDT, together with the ATAR (the SATAC Tertiary Entrance Statement) in SACE Students Online.
How do I check my SACE results?
Log in to SACE Students Online. Your results and your ATAR (the SATAC Tertiary Entrance Statement) are both there on results day.
Who calculates the SACE ATAR?
SATAC issues the ATAR for South Australia. It is a rank, not a mark: it compares your scaled results with your age cohort, so the same raw score can lead to different ATARs in different subjects and years.
What should I do on SACE results day?
Read your results and ATAR, compare the ATAR with the published selection ranks for your preferences, and change your preferences with SATAC before the next offer-round deadline if you need to. Adjustment factors (equity, subject and regional bonuses) can lift your selection rank above your ATAR for some courses.
